Description

Peter Doherty – light rose vinyl LP – Felt Better Alive. Vinyl Records London are on cloud nine, we are now spinning in a brand new copy in Cassettes & Vinyl from Peter Doherty Turn of the millennium wild child and poetic indie darling Peter Doherty hasn’t released a solo album in nine years, but that all changes with Felt Better Alive on Strap Originals. It’s a confident return from the playful guitarist and evocative lyricist with his usual penchant for idealised but real stories of life in Arcadia and plenty of signature melodic hooks all shining through. His guitars are often wistful and come with plenty of lovely strings, but there are more raw and jangling grooves like ‘Pot Of Gold’ and off-kilter pub sing-alongs like ‘Ed Belly’ making this a vivid listen for fans of the Libertines and Babyshambles man.
